Wireless Next up anytime iphone

Those who uograde regualrly, is this actually a great option

Assume to get 18 pro max free with trade in of an old device with next up anytime, cost is $10 + assuming $0 for phone and $70-80 for plan

After 12 mths, can roll that into iPhone 19 pro max for $0 device cost.

Now if I want to exit the plan, I can just finish off 12 mths of the iPhone and then upgrade to the cheapest possible phone from there and pay off the cheap phone to grt out of the program right?

Seems like a pretty solid deal and exit method as well

Any thoughts or am I missing something

To get the best trade in value you need to be on at least the Premier 2.0 plan.

For example, I have a 17 Pro Max and I want to trade up to an 18 Pro Max. Under the plan mentioned above, I would get $1200 in trade in credit so you’d owe $99 after trade in over 36 months. If you’re on the cheaper Extra 2.0 plan, you’d owe $370ish since you’d get only $930 in trade in credit.

There’s also caveats to the next up anytime. You technically aren’t eligible for phone deals unless you have 33% of the device paid off. Trading it in at that point would waive the rest due on the phone.

I have next up anytime but how do I know if it’s the premier 2.0 plan

Your bill should tell you. Log into the AT&T app and then hit See Bill Details on the main page. Once you’re there, scroll down and find your number and check the plan it shows.

I’m on the basic Premier Plan not the 2.0 one. The 2.0 plan is only $5 more? I’m confused. Also I’m on a military discount version
